About Future of Agentic

A research initiative by Olakai

Who's Behind This

Future of Agentic is a research and insight initiative curated by the team at Olakai, the enterprise AI intelligence platform.

We built this site because we kept hearing the same frustrations from CIOs, CISOs, and CFOs: 'We're deploying agents fast, but we can't measure ROI.' 'The board wants metrics we don't have.' 'We have dozens of agents and no idea which ones matter.'

This isn't just a content site—it's a reflection of what we're seeing in real enterprise AI deployments. The calculators, KPIs, and frameworks here are distilled from hundreds of conversations with AI leaders navigating the shift from experimentation to accountability.

10+ years of combined experience in enterprise AI and analytics
Focus on measurable business outcomes, not vendor hype
Conversations with 200+ CIOs, CISOs, and AI leaders across industries
Hands-on work with Fortune 500 AI deployments

Our Methodology

How we build these insights

Primary Research

Direct conversations with enterprise AI leaders, CISOs, CIOs, and CFOs about their deployment challenges, measurement gaps, and governance needs.

Deployment Data

Anonymized patterns from real agent deployments: adoption curves, cost trends, failure modes, and success factors. We see what works and what doesn't.

Market Analysis

Industry reports, analyst research, and public statements from enterprise AI vendors. We synthesize the signal from the noise.

Practitioner Input

Reviews and feedback from practitioners who are building and governing agent systems at scale. We test our frameworks in the real world.

We update this site quarterly as patterns evolve and new data emerges. The shift from experimentation to accountability is happening fast—our goal is to help you navigate it with clarity.

What is Olakai?

Olakai is the enterprise AI intelligence and control layer for agentic AI. We measure adoption, ROI, and risk across chat, copilots, agents, and AI-powered apps—no matter which vendors you use.

We plug into your existing AI stack and turn raw interaction data into business KPIs, cost and efficiency metrics, and governance signals. CIOs, CAIOs, CISOs, and CFOs get a single source of truth for how AI is actually performing in the organization.

Think of Olakai as the observability and control plane for enterprise AI. Just like you wouldn’t run production infrastructure without monitoring or identity without SSO, you shouldn’t scale AI without measurement and governance.

Automated Agent KPIs and ROI

The 8 KPIs featured on Future of Agentic come out of the box—and any custom KPI your organization cares about can be configured and tracked in Olakai. All metrics are computed automatically from your interaction data, no manual spreadsheets or ad-hoc reports.

Governance & Risk Controls

Policy enforcement, data access controls, shadow AI detection, risk scoring, and full audit trails across your AI portfolio—so security and compliance teams can sleep at night.

Executive & Board Dashboards

Board-ready views of agent adoption, ROI, portfolio efficiency, and risk exposure. Answer tough questions from leadership in minutes, with live data instead of slideware.

Unified AI Telemetry

Centralized logging and analysis across all your AI tools—agents, copilots, chat, internal models, and SaaS AI features—so you finally have one source of truth.

Want to see these KPIs in your own environment?

Olakai can be deployed in days and starts delivering insights immediately. No rip-and-replace required.
